Description

Toastmaster THM5100 Hand-Held Mixer

5-speed

100-watt

2 mixing beaters

It has 24 distinct parts.

How It Works

The controls on the mixer step up or down the power to the motor which in turn controls the speed of the mixer beaters. The motor, housed inside the cage, draws electrical power from the cord and in turn converts it to mechanical power. The white piece holds the motor brushes. The motor is connected rigidly to a shaft which runs the length of the mixer. The shaft, held in place by the ball, is threaded and geared with the two gage mixers, which are connected to the mixer prongs. As the shaft rotates, the threads turn the gears on the gage mixers and rotate the mixer prongs. The plastic shaft piece holds the gage mixer and prongs rigidly in place. The end of the shaft is connected to the fan, so as the motor rotates faster, so does the fan without any additional input. The fan draws air in through the slots in the bottom cover and pushes it through the length of the assembly and out the rear slots.
